The Ghost Train of the Great Western Railway (1920s)

Top 10 Historical Time Anomalies

The Ghost Train of the Great Western Railway (1920s): Railroad workers in England reported seeing a fully lit steam train speeding down tracks at night, only for it to vanish before reaching a tunnel. When checked, no such train was scheduled. Some claimed to hear ghostly whistles and screams. Later investigations found no record of an accident matching the description. Folklore suggests it was a future vision or a replay of a disaster that never happened. Skeptics suggest optical illusions or hoaxes. Yet, the recurring nature of such reports across rail lines hints at a deeper cultural anxiety about technology and time, making it a haunting metaphor for progress and its perils.
